A member asked:
If a yeast infection is already present will acidophilus help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Acidophilus will help a yeast infection by competing with the yeast. It will help both by taking it as a supplement because it rebalances your intestines and by putting it into your vagina because it will work directly to compete with the yeast.
